Noa 1

What a pretty, sweet and simple name that still manages to sound classy and sophisticated. I really like it for a girl.

This is my best friend's name! I guess that's why I don't think of Noa as a masculine name, since my friend is a girl. The meaning of this name (motion) fits Noa especially well, as she's very energetic and hyper.

It's alright, although it might get confusing with Noah.

Does the name Noa have No "a"'s?
Of course not! Noa has an "a", loud and clear!

I think I would prefer it as a middle. Definitely feminine. Leave Noah for boys.

No a. Still, it's a lovely name!

Nope! Bad look!

I might consider using the name Noa if I ever have a daughter. I have a wonderful friend named this. Noa is simple, not too common, and easy to pronounce in Spanish. As a Hebrew speaker, I can say that this is a timeless and classic name that will never get old! :)

Very cute, but it will probably be mistaken for Noah.

My 10 month old daughter's name is Noa Grace. I did not know that it was a very popular female name in Israel. I just liked it. I did know it meant movement in Israeli but did not know in Japanese it means love. This is neat to know. And as far as it being too masculine... I get why people here in the U.S. would say that because Noah is a popular boy name but I think without the "H" and with a really girly middle name it works. I am glad I named her this and it fits my nugget perfect.

Noa sounds feminine and it is meant to sound that way. Noa is a popular girls name in Israel. The boys name we know as Noah, on the other hand, is pronounced "Noak" in Israel. And that does sound more masculine. Noa is a beautiful name for a girl.

Noa is still pronounced as Noah. Regardless of them being entirely different names, I still wouldn’t use it on a girl. With so many beautiful girl names, why would you choose this?

This name comes across as incomplete to me and I don't care for it on a girl regardless of whatever anyone claims.

We named our daughter Noa. I think it sounds really feminine, and I loved how it was traditional but still sounded modern. There's a perfume called 'Noa' and a ladies clothes shop called 'Noa Noa' so I always knew it was a girl's name, but I have been surprised by how unusual people think it is in the UK. I've got Spanish and Dutch friends and they've told me it's a really common name back home. I hope my little girl loves her name!

I love NOA for a girl. But I'd probably only use it as a middle name due to the popularity of Noah for a boy. (And I love Noah for a boy too!)

I don't like this name and I wouldnt use it in an English speaking country. Sure, it's a legitimately feminine name, but it still sounds the same as Noah, which is super popular and trendy on boys.

I strongly believe that this is the perfect, acceptable spelling for a girl, NOT 'Noah' as Noah should only be used for boys since it's a MASCULINE name. The female name 'Noa' has a lovely Japanese meaning too. ^^

I find this a good feminine variant of the name Noah.

Haha. I like it. Still seems a little masculine to me though. :P

I love the sound of this name. I would name a son Noah or a daughter Noa. It would of course either be a son name Noah or a daughter named Noa, not both because it would be weird to have 2 kids named Noa and Noah.

I absolutely love this name. I like how it can fit either a girly-girl, or it can fit the most tomboyish girl on earth.

Very pretty. On a girl too!
